The lens covers full frame sensors, making it suitable for Sony Alpha full frame bodies such as the A7, A7R, A7S, A9 and FX series, as well as APS-C Sony E-mount cameras where it gives an even tighter telephoto field of view.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Tamron SP 500mm F8 55B is a compact catadioptric mirror lens from Tamron’s respected SP series. Introduced in 1979, the 55B was known as one of the smallest and lightest 500mm mirror telephoto lenses of its time, using Tamron’s compact mirror optical design to deliver serious reach in a portable body. The later 55BB version from 1983 was based on this original 55B design and revised some of the optical and mechanical features, making the 55B the classic first-generation version of this popular Tamron 500mm mirror lens.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis lens is especially interesting for photographers and video creators who want a real vintage super-telephoto look. Mirror lenses produce a distinctive rendering: compressed perspective, fixed F8 aperture, compact handling, and classic donut-shaped bokeh highlights. It is a strong creative choice for wildlife, moon photography, landscapes, distant details, sports from a fixed position, surveillance-style shots, experimental video, music videos, and stylized cinematic telephoto work.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe lens has been fully serviced by TerPhoto: cleaned, adjusted, re-lubricated, adapted and adjusted for Sony E-mount. Focus movement is smooth and usable, and the lens is ready for practical shooting. The Sony E-mount adaptation allows direct mounting to Sony mirrorless cameras without needing an additional adapter.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note the optical condition carefully: the overall glass is in good condition and is free of scratches, fungus and fog. However, the front lens coating has an unusual visible color change, shown in 2 last images in this offer. We have not noticed an effect on the final image during our testing, but we cannot guarantee that it will never become visible under different lighting, flare, angle or high-contrast shooting conditions. This is reflected in the condition description and should be considered before purchase.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e⚙️ \u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLens Mount - Sony E-mount\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFocal Length - 500mm\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Aperture - F8\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Aperture - F8\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Focusing Distance - 1.7m\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFilter Size - 82mm\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFocus Type - Manual\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSerial Number - 926375\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e🎥 Why Choose This Lens?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIf you want a compact vintage 500mm lens with a unique mirror-lens signature, this Tamron SP 500mm F8 55B is a very attractive choice.
